The Access to University Learning Activities Fund provides employees with up to $1,100 per fiscal year (April 1 to March 31) to cover tuition fees for scheduled MacEwan University learning activities. This includes credit courses, non-credit, and Continuing Education courses, courses available through MacEwan University Sport and Wellness, and programs available through the Conservatory of Music.

Please see the Professional Development section of the portal for more information about eligibility and process.

As we approach the end of our fiscal year, there are some key dates and associated actions to be aware of:

  • For courses that begin prior to March 31, the deadline to submit applications is March 22.
  • 2023/24 funds do not roll over into the next fiscal year.
  • For courses that begin on April 1 or later, please do not submit applications until April 1 (or later). We cannot process applications that will occur in the next fiscal year with this fiscal year’s funds. Applications for courses that begin in the new fiscal year will not be accepted until April 1.
